The impact of weighing packaging systems on food production


Since the 1970s, the birth of the first computer combination weigher has come, he said the decision on the entire food industry has brought unprecedented change life. Enterprise production no longer lacks labor and troubles, and no longer worry about manual weighing is not allowed to bring raw material loss. Take the ten bucket combination scale as an example. Ten weighing units can achieve 1023 combinations and can select the combination closest to the target weight value.

According to the data provided by the National Bureau of Statistics, the output figures of the food industry in the first three quarters of 2012 can be seen that China's food industry has grown steadily. 2012 January to September, above-scale industrial added value calculated at comparable prices of food rose 12.6 percent, 2.6 percentage points higher than the national industrial growth rate, down 2.2 percentage points over the previous year.

The growth of the food industry will certainly drive the development of related food packaging machinery, and many foreign companies expand their packaging machinery business in China. The production level of Chinese combination scales has been greatly improved compared to the past. The original analog signal combination scale , its biggest shortcomings are unstable performance, easy to burn motherboard, IC patch used source and other issues. It has now evolved to use digital signal combination scales, all using digital high-precision weighing signals, which are fast and stable .

Advances in packaging technology have brought new hopes to food companies, because nowadays labor costs are becoming more and more expensive. Enterprises are facing inflation and are facing a sharp rise in labor costs. The rising cost has a heavy burden on enterprises. Bring the gospel to the business.

A company that produces confectionery is expected to produce 1,800 tons per year ( 6 tons per day ). The use of fully automatic packaging solutions can save about 38 to 50 people per year compared to full manual weighing . Although the initial investment in the automatic packaging system will be much larger, the labor cost saved can offset the previous capital investment. This is because the fully automatic packaging solution can achieve at least 60 times / minute, which is difficult to achieve in all manual packaging. This has led more and more food companies to use the weighing packaging system for production.

In the future, more and more enterprises will use automatic quantitative packaging systems to provide good development conditions for enterprises to achieve automated production.
